My Newborn Style

I have been asked about my newborn photos recently and it has given me a chance to put a few of my recent favorites together to share.  I would say that I am a lifestyle photographer when it comes to the little ones, well everyone really.  But for newborns I like to be in your home, capturing life as you are.  I will do some posing, but not much, that is not my strong suit. :)

A newborn session can go anywhere from 1 to 3 hours depending on how the little one is feeling.  I like to roll with it, if there needs to be feeding, or snuggles, or just a break, I like to take my cues from the baby.

It's always fun to capture these special moments!

It's Time to Get Outside

Living up in Northern Alberta with it's super long winter can get pretty tiring.  But the hope of spring is around the corner.  The weather is warming up and the snow is finally starting to melt.  Although the snow melting is a pretty slushy time, getting outside is becoming much more appealing. 

I'm looking forward to working on my skills this season, getting to know my new camera more and more and meeting some awesome people.

Just a reminder, all of my photo sessions are on facebook.

MIA

Wow, I haven't updated my blog in quite some time.  It's not really that I've been MIA, on the contrary, I've been doing quite a bit of photography throughout the summer, fall and into winter!  If you are interested in seeing what's been going on, take a peek at my facebook page.  I've uploaded each session into the photos section.

A Sister's Afternoon

I love everything about this photoshoot.  These girls are adorable, their mom had some awesome props and the weather was lovely.  It was such a great idea to use the girl's play kitchen in the shoot, first of all because it's super cute and second, what a great way to remember what the girls liked to play with.  Such a fun afternoon!

Practicing

My daughter gets her picture taken quite a bit around here, but I also have some other people that let me practice with them too.  These girls are my sis in laws and they are so awesome.  Both of them have a great eye for photography and are so beautiful.  It's a joy for me to be able to shoot them.

And a few pictures of my town because I really love it. 

My Little Model

We know that practice makes perfect right?  I'm not claiming perfection here, but I am practicing alot and my daughter gets to be my little model.  Here are a few of my favorite shots over the last month.

Oh and Daddy is in his fair share of pictures too!!

Beautiful Couple + Beautiful Scenery = Perfect Night

Sam and Vanessa are one of those couples who just fit together.  It was awesome to be able to spend a few hours with them.  They are such a great couple and I just know that their new life together is going to be amazing. 
Vanessa spent her summers working at Dunvegan, so it was the best place to go and get some engagement photos done.  The night was awesome, beautiful light and there were super cool spots to capture the love that is Sam and Vanessa!
